Thank you so much for this extra tutoring. You are right--I deleted the target folder. But that was because I wanted the messages from this person in the Inbox, as the target folder was far enough down on the tree that I had to scroll to it. Before I made the filter, I had made a folder at the top of the tree, below the Inbox, for this person, as soon as I set up the new account. And I didn't know how to get the target folder to the top--which Allie has showed me how to do. -- Best regards, Mary The Bat! 2.00.6 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.04.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
